So what did you get?

I got:
- An A for AVCE ICT single award (which is the same as a full A-level).

What's that?

What's that?

AVCE stand for Advanced Vocational Certifcate of Eduction. ICT stands for Information and Communication Technology, so computers basicly. There is a lot of course work instead of exams.

You do 3 compulsory units:
-Presenting information (describing documents, making doucments, very easy).
-ICT Serving Organisations (exam).
-Spreadsheet Design (marcos, a bit of visual basic).

And 3 optional units (Which college decideds). I did:
-Multimedia (presentation, group work, design).
-The Internet Systems and Services (exam).
-Managing and Developing Websites (making websites, design).

Next year I will be doing the double award, which is like doing another A-level.

Congrats on your results Martinus

It was all much simpler in my day, but then we didn't have computers, or elctricity

Congratulations anyway, have a balloon

Well done Martinus. You've just reminded me of my English GCEs (a lot harder than rubbish GCSEs) I have to do in January.

I guess these are college ecuvenlant (damn... I can't spell) stuff? I got a 1260 on my SAT, if you didn't count the new writing section that they added.

Is that good or bad?

My brother got 3 A's and 2 B's in his A levels. We're all very proud of him.

Setting ever higher expectations for me..

**Big King Sanctaphrax** · 08-19-2005, 11:03

I got 5 As at AS level-in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, English Lit. and History.

**Craterus** · 08-19-2005, 15:27

Yikes! Taking Physics into AS Levels? Why?! I'm pissed off that I have to do it for GCSE..

Well it used to be out of 1600. And it is good, far better than most people do, though if I was like most people in my school I'd redo it, because I didn't get a perfect.
